Ep 7. Size Doesn't Matter

In Tiny House Nation season 2 episode 7, titled "Size Doesn't Matter," the hosts, John and Zack, travel to Austin, Texas to help a couple build their dream tiny house. Despite having a budget of $45,000, the couple is faced with a unique challenge: they are both over six feet tall, and worry that a tiny house may not be feasible for them.

John and Zack begin by working with the couple to design a tiny house that will meet their needs. The couple wants a house that is open and airy, with plenty of natural light. They also need a functional kitchen, as they enjoy cooking, and enough storage space to hold all of their belongings.

To address the couple's concern about their height, John and Zack opt for a unique design strategy. They build the tiny house with a taller roofline and add an extra foot to the overall height. This allows for more headroom and a more spacious feel inside the house.

The construction process is not without its challenges. The team encounters issues with rain during the build, which slows down progress and hinders the construction schedule. They also face a few setbacks with the design, but with some creative problem-solving and the help of local contractors, they are able to overcome these obstacles.

The finished product is a stunning tiny house that defies the couple's initial concerns about size limitations. The house features a spacious and open kitchen with modern appliances, as well as a cozy living area with a built-in couch. One of the most impressive features is a murphy bed that doubles as a workspace, allowing the couple to utilize the space in multiple ways depending on their needs.

Throughout the episode, John and Zack also provide helpful tips for anyone considering living in a tiny house. They stress the importance of downsizing possessions and only keeping what is necessary. They also suggest using furniture that can serve multiple purposes, such as a bed that doubles as a couch or a table that folds up when not in use.

Overall, "Size Doesn't Matter" is a highly entertaining and informative episode that showcases how a tiny house can be customized to fit the needs of anyone, regardless of their height or other concerns. The hosts bring their signature energy and humor to the show, making it a joy to watch from start to finish.
